Don't think OP knows how business works, unless this is imagination, then they should buy Sega or EA obviously.
Sega for Japan, EA for everywhere else.


How does business work? Companies can buy other companies. Whats your point?

These companies need to be put for sale, before they can be bought, and its rare that a company would sell any assets including shares of itself at its market value since they want to make money of course. Furthemore, the company will need to have shares public enough that the company buying them could have a controlling stake in them, its not as simple as spending a cash reserve :|


I completely agree but these are mere wishes. Obviously you cant buy something not being sold.

The dream scenario would be Sega, but that's not happening. Besides, Nintendo already has a very good relationship with them.

A more realistic scenario is the acquisition of Capcom. They're doing very poorly financially. Nintendo nets exclusive rights to mature franchises that will sell hardware. Capcom nets financial stability allowing them to take more risks.

Street Fighter
Monster Hunter
Mega Man
Resident Evil
Devil May Cry
Dead Rising
Lost Planet


Holy crap! I forgot about Dead Rising. CAPCOM FOR THE WIN!



They should buy gamestop, then use it to only sell their products. Simples.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

There's a lot of companies out there that aren't known yet they have a tremendous amount of talent, Retro Studios was like that before being bought by Ninty, and we're seeing companies like Big Red Button whom we only recently took notice of, but we obviously see the potential in a company with a lot of former Naughty Dog staff.



Capcom and level 5

Rare and all their assets from Microsoft


They lost all their talent though.

yeah, but They still have tons of Excellent IP's that really belong on a Nintendo system, and would be better on anyway.

so buy Rares IP's, leave the rest.



Capcom, Sega, SE & Konami



Nintendo should buy exclusive rights for Call of Duty, GTA and every EA and Ubisoft game for the next 10 years. :P

Casual victory secured.



I picked sega in the poll and then thought, hey if Nintendo own them then how am i going to get my sonic fix from PlayStation?

Capcom it is. I can wait until a good zelda comes out until playing street fighter.



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

Killzone 2. its not a fps. it a FIRST PERSON WAR SIMULATOR!!!! ..The true PLAYSTATION 3 launch date and market dominations is SEP 1st
